2940.3000 GROUNDS FOR WARRANTS.

Warrants may be issued for the apprehension and detention of parolees, supervised releasees, and work releasees who are:

A.

alleged to have violated the conditions of their release;

B.

convicted of a new felony and who represent a risk either by absconding or who have a probability of committing acts which are dangerous to the community; or

C.

the subject of detainers in appropriate cases.

When warrants have been issued as detainers for releasees who are being prosecuted for new charges, including violations which are misdemeanors, gross misdemeanors, or felonies, the revocation process shall not begin until the court process has concluded. The court process will be considered concluded by dismissal of charges, a finding of not guilty, or the completion of any local incarceration time imposed by the court.
